<p>The Internet is strange.
It is full of websites and some even include lists.
Lists full of videos for example like this one:
http://meetings-archive.debian.net/pub/debian-meetings/2011/debconf11/low/</p>
<p>Don't worry, this post is really a <a href="../2010/Hello_World">Déjà-vu</a>. In
fact, it's even the <a href="../2010/Hello_World_2">third incarnation</a>…</p>
<p>This stranger gets quite a bit of publicity it seems…</p>
<p>I mean, you are coming back from an exhausting offline week with 11 of "your
kids" (>= 15 years; + 2 more "caregiver") involving walking 140 km in week
and now that you can't move anyway anymore you want to relax a bit and watch
the recordings (thanks video team btw!) of DebConf11 and you start with the
loveliest sounding one - at least if you were <abbr title="Google Summer of Code">GSoC</abbr>
2010 student implementing Multiarch in APT - <a
href="http://penta.debconf.org/dc11_schedule/events/747.en.html">Multiarch in
Debian: 6 months (or 6 years) on</a> expecting a nice talk, some progress
report, maybe some answers for questions and all that stuff and out of a sudden
Steve drops your name…… three times in a single talk!</p>
<p>I am evaluating now solutions to the problem of becoming popular, so prepare to
be impeached for mentioning my name in any kind of media in the future. <a
href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=wcackzHbBT0" title="'The Big Bang Theory'
S02E01 quote">I'm Batman! Shhh!</a>. Every time such things happen it's
harder for me to keep my beloved '<abbr title="I am not a Debian Developer nor a Debian Maintainer">IANAD{D,M}</abbr>'
badge… how do you think my 'I am not responsible for this' claim will work
without it…</p>
<p>More seriously through, I will go now and hunt down all my old school
teachers and all the other people who where unable to pronounce my name
after what felt like a trillion times of 'it's easy, just say "Day-vid
Kahl-nisch-kies"'-remarks and show them a video of a non-native German
speaker who is able to do it (mostly) correctly without this hint and
straight from his memory!</p>
<p>But in the end, I am the last one who is able to complain about names as
I have an inborn brain-defect which renders me unable to remember any
name longer than a split-second… <span class="emoji" data-unicode="1F609" title=";)">😉</span></p>
<p>P.S. from 2015: This post was never published. It was only written and
saved to a draft folder to be reviewed after I had a bit of time to
recover… but I never went back to publish it, so now 4 years later…</p>
